MINISINK CONQUERS SECTION 9 WRESTLING DUALS D-I TITLE

As Head Coach Kevin Gallagher is known to say, “You can’t coast uphill,” and last night Minisink Valley wrestlers spared no pains to earn their right to fight for NYS's Team Title with at the State Championships later this month.

Going in at 23-0 and ranking No. 1 in the state’s large-school pool, lended a mix of confidence and heavy sense of responsibility to deliver. But they are trained to make every practice and every match an opportunity to get better, and that they did.

To the never-give-up cheers from their team and fans, they eliminated Newburgh in the semi-finals 66-12, and battled it off with Monroe-Woodbury in the finals for a clear 56-16 win.
